Secaucus Officer Michael Borrelli was speaking with the occupants of the car around 3:25 p.m. on the Meadowlands Parkway, when he realized that there was a gun in the car, Chief Dennis Miller said.
A search of the car turned up a Glock 19 9mm, loaded with a 15-round magazine and round in the chamber; a loaded 17-round magazine; and 31-round magazine.
Both magazines were loaded with both hollow point and full metal jacket ammunition. The driver, Jzamere Woods, 21, of Georgia, was arrested without incident.
